Im probably gonna go to my brothers house to get it done cause i cant find rsd for mac to download its imppossible. So I got my finger crossed that works
the only problem is when i go in to android termanal emulatior and type su it says i dont have supermisisions but i have the nandroid and clockwork recovery
could we re root and strart over with clock woork my sprecovery was backed up and i performed a clock work back up but i cant get it back if i could start over id b fine with that

ok, let's start from here, and keep the quoted messages so I can keep track easier
1 - You have an sprecovery nandroid backup file that is sitting in /sdcard/nandroid that you can go back to
2- you have clockwork installed right now and it can not do sprecovery restores by design.
3 - you have rom manager installed and the bottom option to flash an Alternative Recovery System is grayed out (this would reflash the sprecovery bootloader)
4 - Android Terminal Emulator (market name, the app name is just Terminal Emulator) does not let you su
Let me know if the above 4 statements are true or false
Link 1 in my signature will let you root and then install sprecovery. Do those steps work for you? Steps 1-26

Can you restore to a previous backup when all was well?

yes 4 statements are true ive put the update zip on sd went to clock work recovery and applyed update.zip got the nandroid but android emulaitor wont let me get past su i have the nija but no su cant restore nandroid back up FILE NOT FOUND
the update zip is to root the phone . could i rename the sprecovery update.zip and go through clockwork and install it that way?ok, let's start from here, and keep the quoted messages so I can keep track easier

Use Astro to look into both the /sdcard/nandroid and the /sdcard/clockwork/nandroid folders to see if you have files there.
What is in the update.zip? Is it your previous backup? That isn't a nandroid recovery image (I dont think)
At this point, I'm guessing the 3rd link in my signature would have been way faster as it takes only 10 minutes or so and then you are back at stock with a functioning phone.

ill check my astro right now im downloading the first file of youre 3rd link
nandroid has all the permissions when vewing through astro how ever clockwork has no nandroide file i was goig to copy the nan. file but i doubt it would work
thank you for youre help and time im usuly not one to ask but then agen i took the easy way so it is my fault lesson learned i did learn how to use mettamorph for droid mod 1.0 can you use it on all roms?
Exactly what I did when updating the rom.I too am experiencing the same issue. I just rooted my droid (for the second time since i unrooted when i thought the ota for 2.1 was happening couple weeks ago) with out any issues. saw the good reviews on rom manager purchased tried go to newest ultimate droid i believe it was 8.1 it downloaded and upon loading back up got stuck on the loading screen. I made the error of not creating a backup with clockworkmod just w/ nandroid. at the time i thought they used same recovery files (lesson learned). only way i could get past the looping was doing a wipe date/factory reset. it let me load back up in ultimate droid rom w/o su. i tried to do the update.zip, tried using droidhelper to try flash back to nandroid with no avail. so like many others i have a rom but with out su.
to answer your question all 4 statments prove to be true. i tried to do your steps on ur first link but since it keeps loading the clockworkmod (v1.7.8.5) i can apply the sdcard update:update.zip then reboot system but makes no difference.
thx for the help!

I'm going to try the Link 3 method, but all the red lettering scares me.
i have clock work and i have no super permisions when in android emulatior i type su and it says permisions denied
What rom do you currently have installed, what issues if any are you having with it?
(I don't know if you got cyanogen installed, are working in trying to get it installed, trying to get it uninstalled, etc)
What directions/methods did you use to get to the above rom, if it differs from the below one?
What was the previous rom you had installed and what directions/method did you use to get that one?
Do you have a backup, and if so what kind and where is it?
Do you have root explorer, the superuser app in the app drawer, or other rooting tools you've used in the past?
